A 30-year-old man who
believed the coronavirus was
a hoax and attended a “Covid party” died after being infected with
the virus, according to the chief medical officer at a Texas hospital.
The
official, Dr. Jane Appleby of Methodist Hospital in San Antonio, said the man
died after deliberately attending a gathering with an infected person to test
whether the coronavirus was real.
In
her statements to news organizations, Dr. Appleby said the man had told his
nurse that he attended a Covid party. Just before he died, she said the patient
told his nurse: “I think I made a mistake. I thought this was a hoax, but it’s
not.”
